Blog Tour: World's Smallest Post Service + A Giveaway

The project, a collaboration between Lea and Chronicle Books, is artful, thoughtful and exceedingly clever. It feels like the ultimate reflection of Lea's childhood passion for creating whimsical things combined with her interest in "the ways that artifacts and words can catch our attention and invite us to have life-changing insights". I think ultimately what makes Lea's art so unique and special is her insatiable curiosity and her highly diverse background (among other endeavors, she's worked at Alice Water's The Edible Schoolyard in Berkeley, California, served an AmeriCorps stint on the Oregon coast at the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology, and assisted a scent alchemist.

I have loved her idea since I first came across it a year or two ago. I don't know if I can wait to see if I win! I foresee some major teeny correspondence from me and my kiddos to far-flung family very soon...

not only is she full of whimsical ideas, Lea's an exceptionally helpful and efficient person! she expedited my order the last time when my message got lost in the electronic ether so that I could receive my item on time! Tiny postal service with a BIG heart!
